Client Background
A unit owner in West End reached out after receiving a notice from their body corporate. Water from their leaking shower had been reported in the common ceiling cavity and risked spreading to neighbouring units. The body corporate required the leak to be fixed immediately, or the owner would be liable for costly strata repairs.
The Problem
The shower had several issues contributing to the leak:
- Failing silicone around the edges, peeling and lifting away.
- Cracked grout lines allowing water to penetrate into the structure.
- Mould growth creating a constant maintenance headache.
Every day the leak continued, the owner risked being hit with repair costs far higher than the price of a simple shower fix.
Our Solution
Platinum Seal stepped in to stop the problem at its source.
- Inspection & Quote: Same-day inspection confirmed a premium epoxy re-seal would stop the leak and meet body corporate requirements.
- Preparation: All failing grout and peeling silicone were removed.
- Deep Clean: The shower was sanitised to eliminate mould and residue.
- Epoxy System: High-performance epoxy grout and sealants were applied, creating a watertight barrier built to last.
The work was completed in just one day, and the owner was able to provide proof of repairs back to the body corporate immediately.
The Results
✅ Leak fully sealed — no more water in common areas
✅ Body corporate satisfied — no fines or repair charges
✅ Fresh, hygienic shower with a modern finish
✅ Long-term protection thanks to our epoxy system
